Italy Demands Release of Detained Journalist in Tehran Amid Rising Tensions

Credited from: LATIMES

  • Italy's foreign ministry summoned the Iranian ambassador to advocate for the release of journalist Cecilia Sala, who was arrested in Tehran.
  • Cecilia Sala, a reporter for Il Foglio, was detained on December 19, only six days after her arrival under a journalist visa.
  • Reports indicate that she is currently facing inhumane treatment, including solitary confinement, with limited contact with the outside world.
  • The case has escalated into a politically sensitive issue, as her detention is believed to be linked to the arrest of Iranian national Mohammad Abedini in Italy.
  • Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni plans to discuss the situation with her foreign and justice ministers amid growing public pressure for Sala's release.
